Nah, he's a fictional character from a computer game and not a real person.

Yet it's a fictional game that millions pay real-life money to continue playing. Very similar to people paying real-life money to watch movies and debate them, whether virtually or realistically, for hours if not months and years.

Pretty much this. And it was entirely due to player complaining and pressure. They were shaken up by the serious change in leadership, from Thrall who did nothing, to Garrosh who went 120% every day, all day.

I want the Garrosh from Stonetalon back. Not this power-hungry dictator they have using his name now.

I've often imagined anyone that says 'its a fictional game/movie/comic, its not real!' so boldly are also people that would tell there children the easter bunny is not only made up, but that was rabbit you put in his sandwich for lunch.

err.
what's wrong with that
rabbit tastes nice and they're not going to eat themselves.

If you are particularly bold, you could use a Shiny Ditto. Do keep in mind though, this will infuriate your opponents due to Ditto's beauty. Please do not use Shiny Ditto. You have been warned.

If Garrosh is so hardcore and follows "victory or death" no greater shame could come from letting him live with defeat. I hope the final blow is about to be given and a main character interupts with some badass scene full of contempt...not sympathy. Some twisted exile or imprisonment. Perhaps he will be mutilated and physically deformed after being purged of the old gods power. Death is too sweet an escape. Get dark Blizz....make the Horde seem more savage and dark in their punishments!

I would imagine that had the fan base taken to Garrosh, instead of hugely disliking him, his outcome would be different. I think his demise is a result of how much the players didn't like him or the thought of Thrall stepping down from the mantle.

Funny thing, Blizzard actually made comments on how they wanted to make him a better character and whatnot, and how he was being shaped to be more likeable and be a nice warchief (no, I don't have blues readily avaiable, search for them if you don't believe me), and as soon as he replaced Thrall AND STARTED ACTUALLY DOING SOMETHING, there was massive whining by players from both sides (who ironically, called Garrosh a whimpy useless brat in TBC).

So there you go. I liked Garrosh. I like Grom Hellscream (probably one of my favorite characters, if not THE favorite). I had hopes that blizzard wouldn't butcher him like they did (and like they did with many great characters) but alas, it turns out that Blizzard does a shitty job with story telling since WoW.

Funny thing is, people that actually liked Garrosh for what EXCATLY was should like him even now. But no, people just saw the "good things" without taking in account the rest, beliving his destiny was to be a "hero", like his father. Well, i'll give you a scoop, Grom was NOT a hero, he lived as a very questionable and reckless individual all of his life, and people seem to hand-wave everything and liking him for the "last minute redemption" that wrongly marked him as the great, good hero of all.
And based on this, people think Garrosh had to be a hero, hand-waving again that his development had an insane amount of hints about the direction he was intended to take. Delusional at best.

Oh yeah because Garrosh was so open to opinions in Cata and didn't just treat like complete shit anyone that disagreed with him. Keep belive it.

I think Garrosh is going to be a lot older and weaker. It doesn't make sense that he would go back in time and instantly take an old broken horde and bring them to the present.

It makes more sense that Garrosh would go further back, possibly not revealing who he is, to give himself time to unite the clans as well as build up their new armaments. This would be a reason why he's not seen as a main boss.

Second of all, we don't actually know what'll happen to Garrosh, aside from the fact that he travels back in time, creates an alternate past and at some point, gets thrown aside.

EDIT; ... Really ThunderlordTempset... Did you HONESTLY need to create an account just to necro a 10 month old thread to throw a punch at Trassk? Really!?

he had everything to be great good guy. Awesome past with burden to live and stuff. I wish he would walk the path of good. If he dies what will happen to hearthstone ? will they change heroes from Garosh to other warrior ?

Kinda sad, Garrosh is a good character and a true warchief that showed what a true horde.Horde was ment to dominate and Garrosh tried to make that not like Thrall in a peacefull way .Not saying that Thrall is bad or anything, he is awesome aswell but just saying that Garrosh almost or maybe uphold good honor.

Still makes me laugh when people moan about Blizzard and Garrosh, claiming that it's "poor writing", or "a waste of a character" - a waste of him being a character would have been to have shoved him in the background then pointlessly killed him off. As for the poor writing, it's barely "poor". Have people ever thought that Garrosh is intended to be written this way? As childish, war hungry, nerd-raging, inexperienced, "I wanna be like my daddy when I grow up" character? Garrosh hasn't changed much in terms of going from good to bad, he's only gotten more extreme in his ways - and it's pissing the real Horde off. Whether Garrosh is killed or not, I'm just glad by the end of this expansion he'll no longer be Warchief. I'd honestly be shocked if he doesn't die though, I can't see Vol'Jin and Sylvanas stand down from the opportunity.

I'm still piss at blizzards pisspoor story telling and letting him live past the raid. Garrosh should have been killed and his head handed over to the horde. Done and done but no... Let's do the time warp again.
